Top Ten GOP Reactions to the Aurora Shooting

Last night at the midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises, gunman James Holmes, a PhD student of Neuroscience, fired into a crowded theater, killing 12 and wounding over 50 before being apprehended by Colorado police. Conservative reaction was swift, with Texas Rep. Louis Gohmert claiming it was in retaliation for attacks on Judeo-Christian beliefs. Congressman Gohmert further stated on Heritage Foundation radio that he didn't know why more people in the theater didn't shoot back to minimize the casualties. But there were other reactions by top Republicans. What were the the top ten?

see? this is what a liberal education does to people. if this poor soul had just gone to regent university or liberty, then he would have gotten right with jeebus, and could have channeled his anger into gunning down demonrat congress people, or perhaps an abortion provider. the cognitive dissonance between neuroscience (boo) and creationism (yay) is likely what drove the guy over the edge.
